Robert Peczkowski continues his series on the Messerschmitt Bf 109 with a new volume on the "E" variant.

The book is 80 pages of glossy 9.5" x 6.5" pages. 

The content is logically structured along chronological lines, starting with the Bf 109E-0 and finishing with the E-9. Each variant is covered by line drawings, a description of the differences and photos. The basic description of these variants spans almost 30 pages.

The remainder of the book comprises 19 attractive colour profiles and 33 pages of colour walkaround photos of museum aircraft.

This is a compact and handy reference for this massively popular subject.

Recommended.
